School Excursions

As with all public open spaces there are inherent dangers associated with the natural and urban environment. The Urrbrae Agricultural High School, Urrbrae Wetland and Mitcham Council take the staff and visitor safety seriously.

BEFORE ANY GROUPS VISIT THE URRBRAE WETLAND –  group leaders (teachers, supervisors) must read the following Risk Management document, making them aware of their specific roles and the role of the Wetland Manager in relation to risk management.

This document must be signed, dated and emailed back to the Wetland Manager prior to the excursion date, indicating to the Wetland Manager that all supervising staff are aware of the risk management procedures.
